Just What The Doctor Ordered...

Due to the changes ie, The Prostate Cancer Foundation Of New Zealand and Movember parting ways - as announced this week - Please note that we have decided to stay with raising money to support The Prostate Cancer Foundation of New Zealand so watch this space for fantastic hot off the press news as we work alongside the charity that have got behind us 100% with our new awareness campaign. We wish everyone a great time with Movember and the chosen charitiy that it will support, all fundraising is good........The tight constraints around Movember mean that they have the legal rights on growing facial hair for charity in the month of November - so watch this space as we're just checking the legalaties of our new campaign which won't include a mo bro and in November - NO!!............

We'll Flash Our Tash Anyway...

OMG - how many times have our phones rang overnight with the latest news on the decision for the The Prostate Cancer Foundation of NZ to split from Movember - and quite rightly so!! Obviously there's way more politics to it, however - we DO want the money to stay and be spent in New Zealand AND we DO want the specialists, consultants and surgeons to decide on HOW and WHEN that money is spent, so as they say in the racing world - "AND THEY'RE OFF" - we'll do it on our own if we have to, but judging by the HUGE support that we have got over Think Pink, we know that we'll be just fine. Massive sponsorships are coming in and as we have always said that the money was being raised for The Prostate Cancer Foundation of NZ, nothing will change except the night just keeps on getting better. Watch this space for more fan"tash"tic announcements.......BBBBBRRRRRIIIINNNNGGG it on!

Another month has flown....STIHL MOWING....

Another month has flown, and although Think Pink is at the forefront of our meetings at the moment as it is 6 weeks earlier than Movember, it's at the forefront of Natalies head... Nat has been parading around town with her Movember and Think Pink tee-shirt on and getting the word out, and the official launch of Movember will be at Think Pink, although Movember only starts on the 1st November, we will get everyone to start to sign up for our team from Think Pink onwards.. After having Hamilton Party Hire out for the Think Pink marquee, I should have asked Nathan to quote us for the Movember marquee too - it will run off the front of the hotel as an extension. At the moment, we can't seem to get beyond the 80'smusic - it is sooooo distracting - it's the case of do you remember this - over and over and over again. At least with having curly hair, I can get BIG hair rather easily, and Nat has about 4 options of fancy dress to think about - Anne White is so busy at the moment she can barely think beyond next week - but if you're local or you know us, we'd love to hear your memories on 1980's party food.

Todd and Donna Dowd from STIHL CHAINSAWS & MOWERS of Putaruru are offering a fantastic prize for the best MO on the night, so a HUGE thank you to Donna and Todd who have come on board 200%.

Well, more things to tie into place, and more music to listen to, and costumes to plan to make Movember a MO-Memorable night........

Don't think we're ignoring you.....

We are working on both Think Pink & Movember at the MOment, but it's the really boring bits to read, you know, sorting out the printing, official celeb invites, RESPONSES FROM MC's and the like -hehehe. Just trust us that it's mind blowing, and if you're a business reading this, we'd love to hear from you if you want to sponsor us.....

NEW IDEA....

OMG - I've just come up with a new idea as a prize for the night, I told Nat and she almost choked to death. That could be because she has pneumonia at the moment [truly - so get well soon Nat]. We have a super, massive huge shout of THANK YOU goes to Maree Worth of Putaruru Super Liquor. That woman is a true godess. She's helped us out sooooooo much this week, she's a true legend. Don't forget that if you're travelling through good old Putaruru and in nees of a prezzie for someone - Maree makes bloody awesome gift baskets so stop by and grab one [ for a small fee of course - lol]....Thanks Maree

The Blokes Sheds' a comin..........

Guess what we've just secured...a shed....a blokes shed.....a new one - brand spanking new and we're going to fill it (well our sponsors are) with beer & blokey things. Now you ask, WHAT ARE WE GOING TO DO WITH IT???? Well, we're going to raffle it, so you - YES YOU, could be the proud owner of a blokes shed full of blokes stuff - no girls allowed [whatever]. Watch this space to see what things are going to go into the shed and keep an eye out for the tickets going out on sale. Another meeting under our belt today, and Nat had to confess that her long list of 80's music was from a whole series of 80's music VIDEOS at home. For Pete's sake - the girls gone back a few decades and has become obsessed with club sandwiches - hehehe. Well back to the daily grind.........................
